Dear Seniors,
Please guide me with the procedure and a draft for a show cause notice. One of my Branch Managers is carrying out his own business of water supply in his city. I am looking forward to seniors for help in this regard.
There is a condition in our appointment letter that mentions that during the course of employment, an employee should not engage themselves in any other business or profession without written permission from the management. Please guide me with a show cause notice.
Best regards,

What is the proof that the Branch Manager is engaging in other business activities? Would he claim that it belongs to his wife, son, brother, etc.? Drafting a show-cause notice is easy, but proving the violation of the terms of appointment or company rules can be very difficult.

You should discuss this issue with him first before issuing any letter. As rightly suggested by Nathrao you must have the proof before mooting any discussion .

Check whether the business is in his name first. Most of the time, it would be in the name of a family member. Without ascertaining the facts, in case you issue him a notice and he responds back stating that the business belongs to his family member, it would be embarrassing for you and the organization. So, kindly first ascertain the facts discreetly before you proceed with issuing a notice.
